00:03 - Okay, so what's going on with Cliff Kingsbury here?
00:05 It seems like a last minute pivot for him
00:08 from offensive coordinators.
00:10 You know, he's bounced around, let's be honest,
00:12 college pro, different places.
00:13 He's landed now though, yesterday, late yesterday,
00:17 on the Washington Commanders.
00:19 Is there something to this?
00:20 Is it more money, better situation?
00:22 I'm not following as closely why Kingsbury
00:26 inevitably has chosen Washington here.
00:29 Well, let's remember the first time he was hired
00:31 in the NFL as a head coach, right, out of college.
00:34 What was the reason?
00:35 Attaching to a quarterback,
00:36 immediately there with Kyler Murray.
00:38 So did he talk to the commanders and Raiders
00:42 and one had a better plan to possibly moving up
00:45 to number one if needed,
00:46 or the commanders possibly could stay put at number two
00:50 and have an easier path at getting Caleb Williams,
00:52 who we coached at USC.
00:54 We know all this connection between that style of offense
00:58 and Lincoln Riley and going into what we have
01:01 with Kyler Murray.
01:02 So there's always some dot connecting there
01:04 with these offenses and why this was a bit of a battle,
01:08 right, between two teams to land him.
01:09 So maybe the commanders could pitch easily
01:13 that we're in better position
01:14 to go get Caleb Williams for you.
01:16 We can kind of just figure out a way to move up one spot
01:20 where the Raiders might be out of luck, right?
01:22 Trying to move up that far.
01:24 Now, the interesting thing that comes into play,
01:25 the Raiders could still affect things here
01:28 because you have them hiring Luke Getzey
01:31 because they couldn't get Kingsbury.
01:32 He was attached to Justin Fields.
01:35 Did they make a play here?
01:36 So that number one pick with the Bears,
01:39 there's so many ranges of outcomes that can happen there,
01:43 but I guarantee you now,
01:44 if the commander sit at number two,
01:46 he's a DC native,
01:48 Caleb Williams will be in Washington with Cliff Kingsbury.
01:50 So we'll see how it plays out
01:52 if that quarterback doesn't go number one to the Bears.
